How can you call it "old tech" when its replacement/upgrade is not even out yet?

Old tech? This is state of the art. Even the new 11th gen from Intel can't compete. If you think this is old tech, you should avoid giving computer advice.

I like that prices are dropping. Almost want to upgrade the 2700x but will wait for more price drops. Plus not as worth it for QHDUW.

Yea, it's true. Cpu upgrade is not that necessary. 4790ks are still rocking these days. $300 is a great price. I also bought open box mobo at microcenter. Works well.
I thought the same thing about my 4690k oc'd until I experienced bottleneck. 5600x not looking back at team blue again

Speed of light quantum computing will be available at some point. I'd wait for that.
Alder lake is 4-5 months off. That's not very long.

With that said, this 5800x is fine if you need to upgrade now.

"Micro Center" is in the front page thumb. This "no store" sort of thing is always present. I don't have (near me) a Costco or a Target or a Fry's or a Tractor Supply etc. and they dont ship most of the time. Its just how the stones roll. I do have a Micro Center and it makes-up for not having most of the others (a Costco would be nice)
Not to brag, but a brand new Costco just officially opened on July 21 in my neck of the woods.

Costco seems like the best club store from what I see here (the deals I cant get). We have a BJs and its minor league compared to Costco. I don't even bother joining anymore

I dont even drive 40 miles to save $20 lol.
That's smart because you aren't saving anything. My employer pays me around 50 cents a mile to drive my car for work. That's based on what they calculate the average cost is to drive a car with gas, wear and tear, insurance, depreciation etc. So driving 40 miles costs around $20 and you would just be wasting your time.

I don't even pay $5 in tolls. As I said - "NYC" area (meaning metro). I didn't say Manhattan, Brooklyn etc. My in-state Yonkers store (I'm in Westchester) and NJ store are practically the same miles away. For NJ I have a $2 bridge toll (Bear Mt) and a couple minor tolls in NJ. If I buy 1k worth of parts I can pay 89 tax or 32. No need to pay an extra 57. Plus NY roads are a disaster. As soon as I hit NJ line, the roads are like America again

That is so seriously good shopping. Glad it worked out. Now I know it must be 15 miles for a price match.
Actually, according to Best Buy's price match policy, a local competitor must be within a 25 mile radius. I'm not sure how they measure the distance though. Since the distance I measured and their distance sometimes doesn't match up. I'd suggest you call their customer support number to confirm whether a specific store is eligible. The number I used is 1-888-237-8289. That said, you may be lucky and have a store with a good manager that will do the price match regardless of distance away from Micro Center.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, I'd skip ryzen 7, either get 5 or 9.... But good price
Depends on the budget and use scenario. I'd still wait for better deals on Ryzen 7 than current prices though.

Kind of wish I got 5800x at this price but I needed a processor and don't really need more than 6 cores for my use case. Also more money towards gpu. 8 core is supposely future proofing but next gen will be another big IPC increase.
i am trying to hold out till next spring..when the tech really bumps up...
